Kaslo Travel Guide
Map
Welcome to Kaslo!
Incorporated in 1893 as the first community on the shores of Kootenay Lake, Kaslo is a flashback to the past, with its tree-lined streets and stately Victorian buildings. Situated between the Selkirk and Purcell Mountains, this former sawmill town boasts spectacular views of the surrounding alpine peaks and picturesque lake. Winter and summer activities abound, from skiing, snowboarding and snowmobiling in the winter, to fishing, boating, hiking, golfing and camping in the summer. Visitors to Kaslo can also explore the town's rich history. The S.S. Moyie is the world's oldest surviving sternwheeler, having cruised Lake Kootenay for over 60 years. It has now been restored and is a popular attraction. An array of summer festivals and special events, such as the Kaslo Jazz Festival and the Model Boat Regatta, also attract visitors from far and wide to this small alpine community.
